About the Game

Survive Europe's Greatest War

Before preparing for the next one...

You're put at the helm of your nation during Europe's most violent century.
You'll have to sacrifice everything your country values for a chance to emerge triumphant.
Whether you rise or fall there's a price to pay.
If you manage the aftermath properly you'll be ready when the storm clouds gather once more...

Gameplay

  • Choose any nation to lead through the 20th century.
  • Manage each aspect of your country at a macro level.
  • Maneuver and organize infantry, artillery, planes and navies.
  • Oversee production and supply of military equipment and resources.
  • Undertake nation-wide efforts to conduct research, industrialization and integration.
  • Engage in diplomacy to stack the odds in your favour.

Immersion

Every aspect of leading a nation is covered. Emphasis will depend on your country's current situation. During war you'll order and direct troops, whilst at peace you'll do a delicate balance of keeping your country and economy stable. Certain worldwide events might have you tackling other aspects such as pandemics, recessions or re-armament.

  • Several nations have unique content, events and challenges to manage.
  • You'll have many opportunities to diverge the course of history, with actions and writing to reflect your choices.
  • The game doesn't end after peace is signed. War had a tremendous human and material cost. This price will be made very apparent.
